Still with some gas. Little development on the nose and tingles the palate with lime sherbet. Remains very young, simple, but inexpensive and will gain weight, complexity and further interest with time under the Stelvin seal 17.5.

On par with all previous vintages of this. Such a consistent performer. So appreciative of the low alcohol, full flavour combination here. Always a great party starter.

To plagiarise Chatters, slightly reductive and dusty initially. medium minus intensity fruit flavours show apple and lychee, palate shows the same plus a savoury herbal tinge of pine needles that adds complexity, residual sugar offsets quite sharp acid. Still with some gas, so slightly tingles the palate. Very young. Simple, but inexpensive and will gain weight, complexity and further interest with time under the Stelvin seal. Compared with 2015 more structure so I say hold some for 2030 17.5.

There are already signs of maturity, which are the aroma and taste of cherries. Slight acidity with some sweetness on the finish.
